[QUOTE="EricNoah, post: 897296, member: 4"] Additions: The freed humans can only jack in from their ships, and only when the ships are at "transmission level". Not only does The Construct (the "training area") allow the freed humans to train for missions, but it allows them to create objects that they can take with them into the Matrix. Presumably those objects must follow the "rules" of the Matrix. Neo/The One hasn't shown the ability to create new objects or control the programs/avatars of others while in the Matrix itself. Agents can posess the avatars of the enslaved humans, but not other agents or jacked-in free humans. However, the rebel Agent Smith in Matrix Reloaded seems to be able to use both to replicate himself in a unique way. Rogue programs usually return to the Source to be recycled, but several (as we've seen) hide from that fate. The programs include The Oracle, Agent Smith, Merovingian, Persephone (she's a program, right?) and the Keymaker. They all seem to be amazingly "human" in response and motivation in many ways.
